Press Opinions.
Mr. K. M. Panikkar, lately Chairman of the Department of History in
Aligarh University; has done a distinct service to the country by his able
analysis of the processes of aggrandisement with which the Br. Empire was
built up. In his small book he has laid bare the selfishness which
underlies the foundation of the British Empire. "What it stands for," says
Mr. Panikkar, "is a white oligarchy exploiting coloured nations. It is in
fact a British Empire Co., Ltd." The Book is a valuable addition to the
growing Indian Political Literature.--_Bombay Chronicle._
We have learnt to associate Mr. Panikkar's name with first class work and
our expectations have not been disappointed in this volume. The vulgar
pretensions of Imperialism have been shown up with perfect candour, but
the days of Imperialism, according to the author, are numbered in Asia
though not in Africa. It has done the great service of calling forth the
mighty spirit of Asia from its decaying cell.--_Modern Review, Calcutta._
"Your remarkable little book _on Imperialism_ which I have read _three
times_--I have been anxious to write a review on it appreciating it."--_C.
